“My Dad already works in construction and I want to follow in his footsteps and show that females can be successful in this industry too.  I'm getting a huge amount out of the training scheme, I'm part of a great team and have got to meet lots of talented people and get contacts which may prove useful in the future.  I've gained a lot of valuable experience.”

“The site experience has been really good. At college there’s only so much you can learn. On site you can actually put things into practice and learn how different equipment works. We’ve been involved in everything from the paperwork to on-site hands-on experience. It’s just been good to be on a real site and work around professionals.”
